Event Summary and Reflections

1. Firstly, congratulations to Wu Yize and Xiao Guodong for both winning their matches and advancing to the quarterfinals.
2. Shaun Murphy, the defending champion, was eliminated in the first round by Wu Yize, highlighting the significance of Wu’s victory. Wu took an early 3-0 lead over Murphy; although Murphy fought back to win two frames, Wu ultimately won 6-2. Throughout the match, Wu demonstrated exceptional accuracy, especially in long-range shots, and his cue control was noticeably superior to Murphy’s.

• Xiao Guodong’s performance was even more impressive. Before the match, most people doubted his chances, but he proved them wrong. He started strong with four consecutive frames, then Selby won two frames back, but Xiao responded by taking two more frames, finishing with a 6-2 victory. Xiao’s display today was truly outstanding — a big-match player who took control from the start. We look forward to seeing him go even further.
